What do reviewers say about Duchessa and Maharloo?
If you want a fragrance that smells like a Venetian palazzo in autumn, this is it. Black cherry and clove create a cozy, opulent feel, but the iris in the drydown keeps it from being overly sweet.Duchessa
Cherry-lovers who find most cherry fragrances too linear will understand the appeal here. This one isn't cherry standing alone, it's cherry complicated by licorice and benzoin.Maharloo
